Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Except where the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the "Company," "Profire," "we," "us," "our," or similar words and phrases are to Profire Energy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, taken together.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit.

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

NOTE 4 – PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consisted of the following at each balance sheet date:


	As of
	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Assets classified as held for sale	$	—	$	623,805
Prepaid inventory	445,683		542,313
Prepaid insurance	148,396		217,465
Interest receivables	64,604		65,984
Vehicle trade-in credits	6,993		55,733
Other	107,470		173,128
Total	$	773,146	$	1,678,428

In the table above, the assets classified as "held for sale" consisted of an office building located in Spruce Grove, Alberta, Canada. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold the remaining three bays that were part of the office building, which resulted in a gain of $42,378 CAD that was recorded during the period.

Other	131,702		176,926
Total	$	1,486,578	$	1,196,870

NOTE 6 – LEASES

We have leases for office equipment and office space. The leases for office equipment are classified as financing leases and the typical term is 36 months. We have the option to extend most office equipment leases, but we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, no extensions have been recognized in the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The office equipment lease payments are not variable and the lease agreements do not include any non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or restrictions. There are no interest rates implicit in the office equipment lease agreements, so we have used our incremental borrowing rate to determine the discount rate to be applied to our financing leases for purposes of determining our lease liabilities. The weighted average discount rate applied to our financing leases is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 10.3 months.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Financing Lease Cost	2021		2020		2021		2020
Amortization of right-of-use assets	$	10,211	$	15,121	$	21,203	$	33,497
Interest on lease liabilities	417		3,375		2,353		4,247
Total financing lease cost	$	10,628	$	18,496	$	23,556	$	37,744

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

The following table reconciles future minimum lease payments to the discounted finance lease liability:


Years ending December 31,	Amount
2021 - remaining	$	18,079
2022	12,803
2023	—
2024	—
2025	—
Thereafter	—
Total future minimum lease payments	$	30,882
Less: Amount representing interest	644
Present value of future payments	$	30,238
Current portion	$	30,238
Long-term portion	$	—

Because our office space leases are substantially all considered to be short-term, we have elected not to recognize them on our balance sheet under the short-term recognition exemption. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized $19,000 and $35,263, respectively, in short-term lease costs associated with office space leases.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company held 3,412,378 shares of its common stock in treasury at a total cost of $5,353,019, respectively.

The 2021 EIP provides for the potential award of incentive compensation to the participants based on the Company’s financial performance in fiscal 2021. If earned, the incentive compensation will be payable in cash and stock, and the stock portion of the incentive compensation is intended to constitute an award under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”).

Under the terms of the 2021 EIP, each participating executive officer has been assigned a target incentive compensation amount for fiscal 2021. The target incentive compensation amount for Mr. Hatch is $200,000, the target incentive compensation amount for Mr. Oviatt is $150,000, the target incentive compensation amount for Mr. Tidball is $150,000, the target incentive compensation for Mr. Fugal is $54,000, and the target incentive compensation for Mr. Fisher is $51,000 CAD. Under no circumstance can the participants receive more than two times the assigned target incentive compensation.

Participants will be eligible to receive incentive compensation based upon reaching or exceeding performance goals established by the Compensation Committee for fiscal 2021. The performance goals in the 2021 EIP are based on the Company’s total revenue, EBITDA, and a non-financial milestone relating to revenue source diversification. Each of these performance goals will be weighted one third in calculating incentive compensation amounts.

The incentive compensation amounts earned under the 2021 EIP, if any, will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in shares of restricted stock under the Plan. In no event shall the total award exceed 200% of the target incentive compensation amount for each participant, or exceed any limitations otherwise set forth in the Plan. The actual incentive compensation amounts, if

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

any, will be determined by the Compensation Committee upon the completion of fiscal 2021 and paid by March 15, 2022, subject to all applicable tax withholding.

In addition to the 2021 EIP, the Board also approved as a long-term incentive plan the grants of a restricted stock unit awards to Messrs. Oviatt, Tidball, Fugal, and Fisher pursuant to the Plan (the “2021 LTIP”). The 2021 LTIP consists of total awards of up to 204,543 restricted stock units (“Units”) to Mr. Oviatt, up to 204,543 Units to Mr. Tidball, up to 85,908 Units to Mr. Fugal, and up to 47,973 Units to Mr. Fisher, pursuant to two separate restricted stock unit award agreements (collectively, the “Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements”) between the Company and each participant. One agreement covers 33% of each award recipient’s Units that are subject to time-based vesting, and the other agreement covers the remaining 67% of such award recipient’s Units that may vest based on performance metrics. Upon vesting, the award agreements entitle the award recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each vested Unit. The vesting period of the 2021 LTIP began on January 1, 2021, and terminates on December 31, 2023 (the “Performance Vesting Date”).

The Units subject to time-based vesting, including 68,181 Units to Mr. Oviatt, 68,181 Units for Mr. Tidball, 28,636 Units to Mr. Fugal, and 15,991 Units to Mr. Fisher, will vest in three equal annual installments beginning December 31, 2021 and ending on December 31, 2023 if the award recipients’ employment continues with the Company through such dates.

The performance-vesting Units, including up to 136,362 Units for Mr. Oviatt, 136,362 Units for Mr. Tidball, 57,272 Units for Mr. Fugal, and 31,982 Units to Mr. Fisher, are eligible to vest over a three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2021 (the “Performance Period”) based upon the following Company performance metrics:

The number of Units that will vest for each performance metric on the Performance Vesting Date shall be determined as follows:

•if the “Target” level for such performance metric is not achieved, none of the Units relating to such performance metric will vest;

•if the “Target” level (but no higher level) for such performance metric is achieved, 50% of the Units relating to such performance metric will vest;

•if the “Above Target” level (but no higher level) for such performance metric is achieved, 75% of the Units relating to such performance metric will vest; and

•if the “Outstanding” level for such performance metric is achieved, 100% of the Units relating to such performance metric will vest.

The foregoing summary of the 2021 EIP, the 2021 LTIP and the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements is qualified in its entirety by the text of the 2021 EIP and each of the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements, which the Company has filed as an exhibits to this report.

2020 EIP and LTIP

Due to economic uncertainties including those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board, with the support of the Company's executives, elected not to adopt an executive incentive plan ("2020 EIP") or long-term incentive plan ("2020 LTIP") for 2020. The Board and executives believed this was an appropriate short-term measure that helped align the Company's cost structure with the extraordinary conditions that affected the industry in which we operate.

2021 RSUs

On February 18, 2021, the Board, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approved a restricted stock award of 18,852 shares of common stock to each of Cameron M. Tidball and Ryan W. Oviatt. Messrs. Tidball and Oviatt entered into Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements, the forms of which were approved pursuant to the Plan. These

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

restricted stock awards, which vested immediately, were settled by the issuance of a total of 27,334 shares of common stock, net of tax withholding and resulted in $45,999 of compensation expense.

On June 16, 2021, pursuant to the annual renewal of director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 189,471 RSUs to the Company's independent directors. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of approximately $216,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

2020 RSUs

On June 17, 2020, pursuant to the annual renewal of director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 270,966 RSUs to the Company's independent directors. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $252,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

Mr. Arlen B. Crouch resigned from his position as a member of the Board, effective August 3, 2020. Mr. Crouch’s resignation did not result from any disagreements with management or the Board. On the effective date of Mr. Crouch's resignation, all of his unvested RSUs were forfeited. The related compensation expense associated with Mr. Crouch's unvested RSUs will be recaptured. On July 30, 2020, the Board appointed Colleen Larkin Bell to serve as a director to fill the vacancy resulting from Mr. Crouch’s resignation, effective August 3, 2020. Ms. Bell was also appointed as Chair of the Nominating Committee and as a member of the Audit and Compensation Committees. As part of her compensation for her service as a director and committee member, on August 21, 2020, the board approved a grant of 92,934 RSUs. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of the grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $72,953 to be recognized over the vesting period.

2020 Stock Options

On March 17, 2020 (the "March Grant Date"), the Board approved a grant of options to purchase 115,200 shares of the Company's common stock at a strike price of $0.81 to various employees (the "March 2020 Options"). The March 2020 Options terminate four years from the March Grant Date and become exercisable as to one-third of the shares of common stock covered thereby on each anniversary of the March Grant Date for the next three years following the March Grant Date. The March 2020 Options resulted in a total compensation expense of $40,280.

On July 2, 2020 (the "July Grant Date"), upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board approved the grant of a non-qualified stock option to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of Mr. Oviatt and Mr. Tidball under the Plan and pursuant to the standard form of notice of stock option grant and stock option agreement under the plan (the “July 2020 Options”). The exercise price of the July 2020 Options is equal to the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on July 2, 2020, or $0.8439 per share. The July 2020 Options vest equally over a period of three years from the July Grant Date. Vesting occurs on the anniversary date of the July Grant Date, with one-third of the total shares vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the July Grant Date. Vesting is contingent upon the executive’s continued employment with the Company on each applicable vesting date. The July 2020 Options expire on July 2, 2024. The July 2020 Options will result in a total compensation expense of $79,431 to be recognized over the vesting period.

On August 21, 2020 (the "August Grant Date"), the Board approved a grant of options to purchase 630,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a strike price of $0.785 to various employees (the "August 2020 Options"). The August 2020 Options terminate four years from the August Grant Date and become exercisable as to one-third of the shares of common stock covered thereby on each anniversary of the August Grant Date for the next three years following the August Grant Date. The August 2020 Options will result in a total compensation expense of $233,111 to be recognized over the vesting period.

NOTE 8 – REVENUE

Performance Obligations

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Our performance obligations include providing product and servicing our product. We recognize product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product is delivered to the customer. Occasionally, if we are shipping the product on a customer’s account, we recognize revenue when the product has been shipped. At that point in time, the control of the product is transferred to the customer. When we perform service work, we apply the practical expedient that allows us to recognize service revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed. We do not engage in transactions acting as an agent. The time needed to complete our performance obligations varies based on the size of the project; however, we typically satisfy our performance obligations within a few months of entering into the applicable sales contract or service contract.

Our customers have the right to return certain unused and unopened products within 90 days for a restocking fee. We provide a warranty on some of our products ranging from 90 days to 2 years, depending on the product. See Note 5 for the amount accrued for expected returns and warranty claims as of June 30, 2021.

Contract Balances

We have elected to use the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 (regarding recognition of the incremental costs of obtaining a contract) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of our current sales contracts and service contracts are expected to be completed within one year, and as a result, we have not recognized a contract asset account. If we had chosen not to use this practical expedient, we would not expect a material difference in the contract balances. We also did not have any material contract liabilities because we typically do not receive payments in advance of recognizing revenue.

Disaggregation of Revenue

All revenue recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers. The table below shows revenue by category:

Overview

We are a technology company providing solutions that enhance the efficiency, safety, and reliability of industrial combustion appliances while mitigating potential environmental impacts related to the operation of these devices. Our legacy business is primarily focused in the upstream, midstream, and downstream transmission segments of the oil and gas industry; however, we have commenced identifying applications in other industries where we believe our solutions will be applicable as we expand our addressable market over time. We specialize in the engineering and design of burner and combustion management systems and solutions used on a variety of natural and forced draft applications. We sell our products and services primarily throughout North America. Our experienced team of sales and service professionals are strategically positioned across the United States and Canada providing support and service for our products.

Principal Products and Services

Across the energy industry, there are numerous demands for heat generation and control. Applications such as combustors, enclosed flares, gas production units, treaters, glycol and amine reboilers, indirect line-heaters, heated tanks, and process heaters require heat as part of their production and or processing functions. This heat is generated through the process of combustion, which must be controlled, managed, and supervised. Combustion and the resulting generation of heat are integral to the process of separating, treating, storing, incinerating, and transporting oil and gas. Factors such as specific gravity, the presence of hydrates, temperature and hydrogen sulfide content contribute to the need for heat generation in oil and gas production and processing applications. Our burner-management systems ignite, monitor, and manage pilot and burner systems that are utilized in this process. Our technology affords remote operation, reducing the need for employee interaction with the appliance's burner for purposes such as re-ignition or temperature monitoring. In addition, our burner-management systems can help reduce emissions by efficiently reigniting a failed flame, thereby improving efficiencies and up-time. Our extensive service and combustion experience provide customers with solutions that are consistent with industry trends and regulatory requirements to mitigate environmental impacts and reduce emissions through increased efficiency.

Oil and gas companies, including upstream, midstream, downstream, pipeline, and gathering operators, utilize burner-management systems to achieve increased safety, greater operational efficiencies, and improved compliance with industry regulations. Without a burner-management system, a field employee must discover and reignite an extinguished burner flame, then restart the application manually. Therefore, without a proper burner-management system, all application monitoring must be accomplished in-person, directly on-site. This requirement for on-site monitoring, in an environment with limited field personnel, can result in the potential interruption of production for long periods of time and increased risks associated with reigniting a flame, which can lead to site hazards, including explosions and the possibility of venting gas into the atmosphere. In addition, without a burner -management system, burners often operate for longer durations, frequently with lower efficiency, resulting in increased equipment fatigue and greater expense related to fuel consumption. We continue to assess regulatory requirements on behalf of our customers. We believe that burner-management systems and services offer solutions for customers to meet compliance standards where applicable. In addition to product sales, we dispatch specialized service technicians to provide maintenance and installation support throughout the United States and Canada.

We initially developed our first burner-management controller in 2005. Since that time, our systems have become widely adopted throughout the United States and Western Canada. Profire burner-management systems have been designed to comply with widely accepted safety and industrial codes and standards in North America, including those proscribed and certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards.

Our systems and solutions have been widely adopted by exploration and production companies (E&P), midstream operators, pipeline operators, as well as downstream transmission and utility providers. Our customers include, Antero, ATCO, Cenovus, Chevron, CNRL, Concho Resources, Devon Energy, Dominion Energy, EQT, Hess, Pioneer Natural Resources, Williams, XTO, and others. Our systems have also been sold and installed in other parts of the world including many countries in South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Though firmly established and primarily focused on North American oil and gas markets, we continue to invest in expansion efforts in international markets and the broader combustion industries.

Environmental, Social and Governance Focus

As guiding principles and core to our strategy, our products and solutions are developed with a focus on safety, environmental impacts, reliability and efficiency. Protecting human life, protecting the environment, and protecting our customers’ investments are key guiding principles. Our products play a key role in supporting our customers’ existing and future initiatives regarding improving workplace safety and environmental impacts.

Our burner-management technology is designed to monitor, operate, and manage a wide array of complex industrial heat-applications. Our safety-approved and certified technology, which is purposefully designed and built to meet regulatory requirements and process needs, is a critical component of our customers’ safety protocols and initiatives.

Proper burner and combustion management control, coupled with peripheral solutions, increase site and location safety while reducing emissions. Profire technology and solutions are integrated into a variety of applications to significantly reduce the release of methane and volatile organic compounds into the environment.

Profire burner-management controls and complementary solutions provide users with the ability to monitor field equipment remotely. This reduces truck rolls and the need for field personnel to travel to and manually inspect burner malfunctions in remote sites and locations. Our automated solutions help our customers improve safety, reduce emissions, and decrease operating costs.

Operator safety is at the heart of our burner-management solution technology. The use of these systems helps our customers increase the likelihood that their employees perform their job safely and return home each day. Adding greater physical distance between humans and the combustion process, as well as ensuring gas supplies are properly shutoff when no flame is present, are two of the critical elements of how our burner-management solutions help protect human life.

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, increased by 38% or $1,674,804 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2020, which was mostly driven by improved customer demand associated with modest recoveries from the macro industry challenges and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The average oil price during the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $66.19 per barrel compared to $27.96 per barrel for the same period of last year, representing an increase of 137%. Additionally, the second quarter of 2021 weekly average rig count for North America was 508 compared to 401 in the same period of last year, which represents an increase of 27%. Although oil prices have recovered from the historic lows of 2020, which was caused by a flood of supply from Russia and Saudi Arabia and a dramatic drop in global demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the operating environment in the second quarter of 2021 continued to be characterized by uncertainty surrounding economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical factors. This uncertainty continued to create strain in oil supply and demand dynamics. As a result of these extraordinary macro pressures and uncertainties, exploration and production companies have remained cautious and have not invested in new production like they were prior to the pandemic. Until our customers return to higher capital expenditure levels, our business is likely to continue to be adversely affected.

Our gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2021 was down 3.9% from the same quarter of last year and was below our normally expected range. The gross margin percentage normally fluctuates each quarter due to changes in product mix and product related reserves, which contributed to the change in gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2021. During the second quarter of 2021, a larger portion of our revenue was generated from service work which also contributed to the decrease in profit margin compared to the same quarter last year. Fixed costs will continue to impact our gross profit margin until revenues recover.

Operating expenses increased $87,851 from the same quarter of last year, which reflected a focus on strategic investments in business development and our employees as we seek to recover from the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting oil market supply and demand imbalance. We expect that our operating expenses, particularly labor and travel costs, will further increase in the second half of 2021 as we position ourselves to respond to the anticipated economic recovery from the pandemic and increased demand for oil and gas production.

Due to the factors discussed above, we reported a net loss of $397,166 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to a net loss of $808,503 for the same quarter in 2020.

Operating cash flows decreased during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020, due primarily to changes in customer accounts receivable balances, as well as accounts payable and inventory accounts.

The global COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our business during the second quarter of 2021 and will likely continue to impact our business in future quarters. However, we remain optimistic that our results of operations will improve as vaccine distribution increases, which we anticipate will result in improved economic conditions and improved demand for oil and gas.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the six months ended June 30, 2021 to the same period ended June 30, 2020:


	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021			2020			$ Change		% Change
Total Revenues	$	11,126,632		$	11,806,621		$	(679,989)	(5.8)	%
Gross Profit Percentage	43.4		%	44.5		%			(1.1)	%
Operating Expenses	$	6,231,081		$	6,994,054		$	(762,973)	(10.9)	%
Net Loss	$	(998,666)		$	(1,173,767)		$	175,101	(14.9)	%
Operating Cash Flow	$	1,555,822		$	847,019		$	708,803	83.7	%

Revenues during the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, decreased 5.8% compared to the same period of last year. The decrease in revenue was largely due to continued uncertainties surrounding economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical factors. Operating expenses decreased 10.9% year-over-year due to our focus on cost control measures in 2020. The decrease in operating expenses helped offset the decrease in revenues. As a result, we reported a net loss of $998,666 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a net loss of $1,173,767 for the same period in 2020. Our gross profit percentage decreased slightly by 1.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to changes in product mix, direct labor costs, inventory adjustments and the fixed cost structure within cost of goods and services.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital at June 30, 2021 was $22,492,270, compared to $23,420,475 at December 31, 2020.

Our liquidity position is impacted by operating, investing and financing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated $1,555,822 of positive cash flow from operating activities, primarily due to cash received from sale of the remaining bays from our old office building in Canada and from changes in inventory levels, partially offset by the impact of changes in income tax accounts. Operating activity trends consist of cash inflows and outflows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we used $743,382 of cash in investing activities, primarily due to the reinvestment of cash from financial investment maturities in our bond and CD portfolio. Investing activity trends consist of changes in the mix of our investment portfolio, purchases or sales of fixed assets, and acquisition activities. We do not anticipate any material capital expenditures over the next 12 months. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we used $64,578 of cash in financing activities, primarily related to equity awards issued to management. Financing activity trends consist of transactions related to equity awards and purchases or sales of treasury stock. We did not purchase any treasury stock during the first half of 2021. The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect our liquidity position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. As of June 30, 2021, we held $19,141,382 of cash and investments that form our core excess liquidity which could be utilized, if required, due to the issues described above. See also Item 1A. Risk Factors for further discussion on the impact of COVID-19 on our business.
